His can-do work ethic is refreshing. Our project was to xeriscape the front of our property. Cutting out sod, placing rocks and plants is a massive and messy job. When it was completed, everything was spotless - no trace of debris or dust anywhere. We highly recommend Tom for any of your landscaping needs. 5 stars isn't enough to express our satisfaction and appreciation for a job well done.

We had to call to find out if we had a future appointment. The second appointment they were very late and never called to let us know they were still coming. We had a design project for the backyard and they never even bothered to even set foot in the backyard , measure it , or look at the trees or the shade patterns or the elevations. When we questioned them, they said that we had dogs so that was why they did not go back there. But the dogs are kept in a room in the house and not allowed to run free . the backyard is not fenced so they just had to walk around the house to the backyard to enter In the end, they accused us of being in the wrong somehow and through extensive negotiation, we received half of our deposit back, Owner Mike Linn was smooth and charming in the beginning and was at the end, rude raised his voice to me , and accused us of lying. Which is remarkable since all we wanted was a simple backyard Landscape design. We feel fortunate to have escaped with minimal emotional and financial damage.
